Play Therapy

About This Service

Play is at the heart of a child’s growth and well-being. It provides a safe and nurturing space where children can explore and express their inner world, including their experiences of loss and trauma. Through these playful moments, children can process complex emotions and begin to heal, fostering resilience and emotional strength.

During a play therapy session, it is all about your child. The relationship between your child and the therapist is of paramount importance, as we create a space where they can feel safe to explore, discover, and express experiences that may be challenging to convey with words. Did you know that defiance or difficulty regulating emotions can be symptoms linked to trauma? Through play, children can heal from past traumatic experiences. We honor your child’s specific developmental stage and look for ways to facilitate their expression, healing, and growth.

Play is also crucial for their psychological well-being, helping them learn to focus, stay engaged, and develop essential coping skills that enable them to navigate life’s challenges. By nurturing their play, we offer them the tools they need to thrive, mentally and emotionally.

Join us in embracing the power of play to support your child’s holistic development and healing journey. Reach out to learn more about how we can guide and uplift your child through the transformative magic of play.

Cancellations, No Shows, and Late Arrivals

Show up for your relationships with yourself and/or others!

Attendance to your appointments is essential for a successful outcome. Also, the time we have for seeing clients is valuable and limited. Therefore, to cancel or reschedule, we expect you to notify us within:

24 hours for weekday appointments

48 hours for a weekend appointment

72 hours (Friday) before your Monday appointment

Failure to do so means that you will be responsible for full payment of the missed session (insurance companies do not cover this fee). This still applies if you get sick, but not if you or a loved one is in a life-threatening emergency.

Please note that we have a 10-minute wait policy. After 10 minutes, and unless you have notified us, we will not engage in services.

Send us a quick message letting us know you can’t make it! This would mean the world to us. Remember… even though this is a therapeutic relationship, we do care about our clients, about YOU!
